It was notable for being the first U.S. company to actively syndicate material internationally. Despite surviving for more than seven decades, EPS was never a large operation, characterized by comic strip historian Allan Holtz as a "hole-in-the-wall outfit."[1] HistoryJoshua B. Powers, reportedly a former U.S. government agent whose beat was South America,{{cn|date=December 2018}} and in partnership with The Evening Post Publishing Company, founded Editors Press Service when he retired in 1933, providing Latin American newspapers with comics strips, cooking features, and other material, in exchange for ad space that he would in turn sell to U.S. companies. Chilean political figure Carlos Dávila was associated with EPS from its foundation in 1933. Sebastian Tomas Robles, son of Peruvian composer and ethnomusicologist Daniel Alomía Robles, was a staff cartoonist for EPS beginning in 1933. Cartoonist Mort Leav began his professional career in 1936 with EPS, supplying illustrations in the period 1937 to 1940 for articles syndicated to South American newspapers.[1] From 1936 to 1940, Editors Press published the weekly comic book Wags in the U.K. (partnering with T. V. Boardman) and Australia.[2] Wags #1 (Jan. 1937) is notable for featuring the debut of Sheena, Queen of the Jungle.[3][4] She was created by Jerry Iger, who ran his own small studio, Universal Phoenix Features (UFP), and who commissioned Mort Meskin to produce prototype drawings of Sheena.[5] Comic strips syndicated by EPS at various points in the 1940s included Captain Wings, Doctor X, and Olly of the Movies. After a long hiatus in the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, Editors Press got back into comic strip syndication in the 1980s and '90s. Starting in 1989 they began syndicating a Tom and Jerry strip, produced mostly by Kelley Jarvis,[6] which ran until 1994. At that point the company picked up The Flintstones by Karen Machette, which it inherited from the McNaught Syndicate.[7] Editors Press syndicated The Flintstones until 1998. In 2004, the Evening Post Publishing Company sold Editors Press Service to the Universal Press Syndicate (UPS), which renamed it Atlantic Syndication.[8] In 2010, Atlantic was merged with UPS as part of Universal Uclick.[9] International syndication continued with representation of The Christian Science Monitor News Service, GlobalPost, London's The Independent news service, and a fashion and celebrity news service called The Daily.[9] Comic strips and panelsEditors Press1940s
